A New Combination in the Genus Bergicoris (Heteroptera: Rhyparochromidae: Myodochini), with Distributional Data for Some Species
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The genus Pseudocnemodus was erected by Barber (1911) to include the new species P. bruneri that was subsequently synonymized under P. canadensis (Provancher) by Van Duzee (1912). This species is distributed in eastern Canada and the United States (Ashlock and Slater 1988), and shows a unique stridulatory mechanism among the Myodochini (Harrington 1980), formed by a stridulitrum over the propleuron and lateral surface of the head, and a plectrum as a row of tubercles on the profemur. Brailovsky (1981) described the second species in the genus, P. martinezi, based on a single male from Paraguay with a stridulitrum over the propleura, but ‘visible only when a beam of intense light falls on it’. Brailovsky and Barrera (1984) noted the affinities between two Neotropical species of the genus Cnemodus Herrich-Schaeffer, C. albimaculus Berg and C. multifarius Berg, and P. martinezi, and pointed out that these three species represented a new genus. Dellape´ (2008, 2010) established the new genus Bergicoris to include B. albimaculus (Berg), B. multifarius (Berg), and the new species B. riojanus. Dellape´ (2008) also showed that the description and photograph of P. martinezi in Brailovsky’s (1981) paper indicated that it appeared to be congeneric with the species included in Bergicoris.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
